Will Not Bring Us Together Lyrics

"I am what I am and I am what I plan
And the world that has gathered
around me
It seems quite grand

In this world of motion mining
I
lay back on my fists
But then I reach around your long black gown
And
grap your supple wrists

The entrance to the cavern is just below my
bed
And the dust that has been gathered
And the fur that has been
shed

I reach far back into empty black space
Hoping my fingertips
will catch a small trace
Of the things that have been gathered there for
years

But the letters that you sent me
And the cards that you
signed
And the napkins and the flatware
And the plates of china
fine
Or the gumballs or the games, the glasses or the meals
The pictures,
the frames, the use of your wheels

The candy, the drinks and all of your
friends
Will not bring us together again

And I guess that I'm sure
that I think that I'm fine
And I think I'm pretty happy putting our life
behind
But the images are strong and physical in my room
Makes me filter
out the tie-down, the frustration
And the gloom

And I know that now
it's an impossible thing
But sever the bond and your freedom will
ring

I am what I am and I am what I plan
And the world that has
gathered around me
It seems quite grand

In this world of motion
mining
I lay back on my fists
But then I reach around your long black
gown
And grap your supple wrists

The entrance to the cavern is just
below my bed
And the dust that has been gathered
And the fur that has
been shed

I reach far back into empty black space
Hoping my
fingertips will catch a small trace
Of the things that have been gathered
there for years

But the letters that you sent me
And the cards that
you signed
And the napkins and the flatware
And the plates of china
fine
Or the gumballs or the games, the glasses or the meals
The pictures,
the frames, the use of your wheels

The candy, the drinks and all of your
friends
Will not bring us together 
The candy, the drinks and all of your
friends
Will not bring us together
The candy, the drinks and all of your
friends
Will not bring us together again"
